Proverbs 10:23-27

²³A fool does mischief in sport; but wisdom brings forth prudence for a man.

²⁴The ungodly is engulphed in destruction; but the desire of the righteous is acceptable.

²⁵When the storm passes by, the ungodly vanishes away; but the righteous turns aside and escapes for ever.

²⁶As a sour grape is hurtful to the teeth, and smoke to the eyes, so iniquity hurts those that practise it.

²⁷The fear of the Lord adds length of days: but the years of the ungodly shall be shortened.
